From JJP:

Greetings Pinball Fans,

Today we are allowed to reveal the latest cabinet and backglass artwork creation by Jeff Busch. We are working on the game mechanisms, rules, insert placement, playfield artwork and the interactive Smaug mechanism on the playfield. In the next few weeks we will show more progress on the playfield.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug opened today and we got a sneak preview earlier this week and the movie was Awesome!

Today we host over 200 people at our JJP Factory so in coming days we will post pictures and more on the cabinet artwork.

Be sure to watch The Today Show this Sunday Morning for a story about Pinball !

Looks great! Hard to believe there isn't a decent pic of Smaug on there though - instead we get a nip shot from the Goblin king...

I think it looks pretty cool except the Bilbo pose on the backglass...maybe its just the location but seems to pull a little way from the Title... looks like more of a supporing drawing that would appear in a corner...

Other than that the artwork i think looks amazing and probably will look much better in person.

I thought the same thing -- I mean the second movie is called the Desolation of SMAUG! Guess the Smaug cabinet art will be reserved for the Smaug LE!

Cab really looks amazing though. Can't wait to see the updated playfield.

Are the standard WOZ backglasses mirrored? Or just the LEs? I presume this will get a mirrored treatment too.

I'm very excited for this machine, but I'm really not a fan of these photoshop mashups... They lack any sense of Art at all. I love the two strong backbox images. The sides and front are hideous to me. I'd rather have a landscape view from the film. A striking image, over a mashup of 10 striking images. I love the STLE side box art. Simple and strong. Don't get me wrong... I will probably be getting this game! I just wish the art was a little more subdued.

Will they add stuff from the third movie? I would assume they've only got art samples from the first two...but the game does announce it is the "motion picture trilogy."

Overall...looks fine to me!

I was expecting drawings too from Jeff Bush who also did the art for Pinball Magic.
Or are these so spectacular that they look like a photoshop collage?

Looks awesome! Love that all sides have unique side artwork. I am surprised though that Smaug isn't anywhere on the artwork. That could be intended though. I'm thinking that the Smaug toy is going to be epic and that JJP has some other Smaug references in there.

MAybe Smaug will be the focus of the attract screen. The side with the hero's/Goblin king/and the Shire is amazing.

You really got to portray the dragon, Smaug, on the back glass. They could've released this yesterday if not. I guess this has to be incomplete without the 3rd movie not being out to next year. I was hoping for better... just disappointed that's all.

Looks good needs more SMAUG!!!!

Also Bilbo looks so scared on the translight backglass, not the best shot of him.

Better then the last cab art for sure. Thanks for Sharing JJP games looking good.

Ever seen a movie preview and there were bits in the preview that weren't in the movie? Yep.

Anyway, I predict a full-length Smaug on the playfield like this:

I think not having Smaug on the cabinet is intended. He's going to be well featured on the playfield in terms of the toy and probably some other way as well.

Also, notice how there's some fire on the lower right backglass artwork. This could be used for a flame effect on the LCD going from the left upper corner of the screen to the lower right.

I like it. Especially if you look at the whole cabinet.

I am slowly going from really, really wanting a hobbit pin, to, need to have one, sadly my wallet does not move an inch into the right direction yet, .

I am hyped for that smaug toy or whatever it will be. My expectation is so high that it almost only can dissapoint. But..... If that still can blow me away, i am going crazy.

Bring it on!

What if the playfield is one giant smaug? Then will there be too much if he is on the sides too?

It's much better glad jjp listened to his customers base, I was very let down by the original artwork. Having the pale Orc Azok in the middle looks silly and no Smaug is a mistake. But it does not look like ass anymore. Saw the second movie today, was fantastic and it will be very hard to turn Smaug into a plastic toy.

With all the competition brewing between these new pinball makers, I wouldn't expect much to be revealed about any new tables until closer to their release dates.

Good point though I recall Jack saying in the last update that he would be releasing playfield progress "in the next few weeks" -- which was something like 3 weeks ago.
